For the first time, Amorepacific, a major Korean cosmetics group, has used fully recyclable packaging made from Dow's INNATETM TF resin for the first time in three of its leading brands
.
Through its partnership with Dow Chemical, Amorepacific is able to advance the use of eco-friendly packaging using high-performance materials that can be recycled in existing recycling streams
.
The commercialization of Dow's biaxially oriented polyethylene (TF-BOPE) film is a key point in packaging toward a sustainable future
.
All PE stand-up bags are recyclable from the design source
All PE stand-up bags are recyclable from the design sourceUnder the tripartite collaboration between Dow, Amorepacific and Flair Flexible Packaging, Amorepacific’s premium cosmetic brand Sulwhasoo, cleansing skincare brand Prima and skin care brand illiyoon will be packaged in fully polyethylene (PE) recyclable stand-up pouches its liquid products
.
"Collaboration is critical to advancing the circular plastics economy, and it is important that participants across the value chain take action to eliminate plastic waste and maximize sustainability
.
South Korea has developed several policies to promote the creation of a zero waste society, such as resource recycling performance management programs to encourage manufacturers to improve the recyclability of their products
.
“As brands, we play a vital role in providing recyclable packaging, and we must be aware and act on this when using packaging materials
.
We are accelerating to meet the growing consumer demand for eco-friendly, innovative packaging
.
"The stand-up pouches are designed to be functional, visually appealing and fully recyclable," said Hanil Lee, senior vice president of technology at Flair Flexible Packaging
.
"Dow's INNATE™ TF resin enables us to develop packaging solutions that support a circular economy.
scheme
.
Dow's INNATE™ TF is considered a "design-for-recyclable" solution that starts at the source
.
Using this material, brands are focusing their sustainability initiatives on improving the recyclability of their packaging
.
Dow's TF-BOPE film enables brands to design for recyclability from the start, choosing packaging that will meet their needs throughout the life cycle
.
Compared with uniaxially stretched PE film, TF-BOPE film has a significant performance improvement in optical properties, film appearance, dart impact, pinhole resistance and other physical properties, and is closer to the shelf display effect of flexible packaging and strict logistics and transportation tests requirements
.
At the same time, because of its unique physical properties, it can be replaced by materials to simplify or thin the film structure, thereby reducing the amount of packaging materials
.
In addition, the film can also be directly used in the printing layer of the packaging, and used in conjunction with other PE functional layers to realize the packaging of all PE materials, which is more convenient for recycling and improves sustainability
.
Dow's goal is to achieve 100 percent reusability or recycling of products used in the packaging industry by 2035
